The return of
peer-to-peer.

It started in 2019 with a simple idea: letting people trade crypto with each other on their own terms. AgoraDesk is back to continue that idea.

A lot has changed.
The idea remains.

2019

AgoraDesk Begins

A new P2P marketplace goes live for Bitcoin and Monero. Traders can browse offers, choose their preferred payment method, and trade through escrow.

2,000+ traders in the first month

2021

Going Global

Traders from all over the world join the marketplace. More currencies, more payment methods, and more local communities make AgoraDesk a truly global P2P marketplace.

85K+ monthly traders

2022

A Growing P2P Network

AgoraDesk reaches new markets as more people turn to P2P trading. Trade volume grows, the community expands, and the marketplace becomes a regular part of how people buy and sell crypto.

$500M+ trade volume

2023

Open Source Goes Live

The project opens more of its software to the community. Developers can inspect the code, contribute improvements, and help shape the tools traders use.

200+ code contributors

2024

The Marketplace Goes Offline

After years of peer-to-peer trading, AgoraDesk begins winding down. New trades are closed, the marketplace goes offline, and a chapter of the project comes to an end.

1.2M+ lifetime trades

2026

AgoraDesk Returns

After a long pause, AgoraDesk is back. Same peer-to-peer spirit, a new desktop experience, and a community ready to start trading again.

What we
actually believe.

The principles behind how we build AgoraDesk and work with the people who use it.

Traders first

We build around real people and real trading needs. Community feedback helps shape the product and guides what we improve next.

Listen to traders
Build around real use

Stay open

We believe people should be able to see what we're building and take part in the process. Open development keeps the project connected.

Give choice

Every trader has different needs. We make room for different currencies, payment methods, and ways to trade across the marketplace.

Choice of offers

Keep control

P2P should give people more control over their funds and how they trade. We keep custody where it belongs: with the trader.

Non-custodial by design
Escrow for active trades

Keep it fair

A marketplace works better when both sides know the terms and have a fair way to handle problems. Clear processes help keep trades balanced.

Fair dispute handling

Build to last

We care about making something useful today and worth using tomorrow. That means steady improvements and a focus on the long term.

OUR MISSION

Make P2P trading easier to access.

AgoraDesk brings buyers and sellers together in one place, with the tools they need to find an offer and complete a trade.

We focus on removing unnecessary friction from the process, so getting started with P2P doesn't feel complicated.

P2P should be easy to get into.

OUR VISION

A marketplace that belongs to its users.

We want AgoraDesk to grow into a place where traders can find new markets, discover new ways to trade, and build lasting connections with other people around the world.

The marketplace should keep evolving with the people who use it, not stand still once the product is launched.

Built to grow with the community.

Made possible by
thousands of traders.

AgoraDesk isn't a product we made. It's a movement we serve. These traders shaped it.
